Jurgen Klopp has provided an injury update for several players following a series of injuries and precautions over the course of the international break and just prior to that.
Klopp wouldn’t go into too much detail on the injuries as he said (in his pre-match press conference posted on the club’s Twitter account): “I understand you all want to know but I never get any information from other teams! So why should we give it out there to the world?”.
Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk both missed their nations second game of the international fixtures, the reason is unknown. Sadio Mane has had surgery on a hand injury that was sustained when on duty with Senegal whilst Naby Keita suffered a hamstring injury in Guinea’s second game of the break. James Milner was also forced off injured against Manchester City with an unknown issue.
On the other hand, Adam Lallana is now in contention for game-time against Huddersfield Town as he returns from a groin injury sustained in early September.
With that in mind, let’s see what some Liverpool fans think.

Glad about the availiability of #Lallana the midfield gentleman with those elegant + accurate passes, the link necessary between squad lines. Wishing him and #LFC the best. Would love to see you Adam among @England squad soon. Now, what matters is the 3 points guys #HUDLIV
